Green with Envy

Lately I've been very drawn to green nail polish, specifically odd green nail polish, so I thought I'd share a few of my favorites from this latest obsession. With that being said, I present to you some of my not so green-greens

Borghese Euro Green (indoors without and with flash)

A coppery metallic antique gold-green with green multi-colored micro glitter- sometimes it looks brown, sometimes the black base really shines.

Borghese Rapido Limoncello (indoors without and with flash)

Though it tends to look more yellow than green, it is infact a a green. Best described as a sort of mustard green.

New Spring and Summer from Deborah Lippmann

Bright, crayola-colored nails are in this spring and summer with the hottest most fashionable shades coming from Deborah Lippmann!

Girls Just Want To Have Fun – A smooth, vintage coral that everyone can wear because it’s bold yet velvety – a sort of carefree, creamy coral.

I Know What Boys Like – A creamy periwinkle that credits to both the 80’s and my clients. Several of Deborah's clients have asked for interesting blues. This one is a blend of blue and purple with a creamy finish, which gives it a slightly retro look that is so playful and hip.

Yellow Brick Road - a sheer mellow yellow with a jelly finish. The proof that it wears beautifully on all skin tones: it complements many including Lady GaGa, who wore it first for her “Born This Way” performance at the 2011 Grammy Awards

Lara’s Theme was created with supermodel Lara Stone is Deborah Lippmann’s newest celebrity collaboration. It’s a dare to wear shade of hot-hot orange

Each of these hot nail colors retail for $16.00 and is available at Barneys New York, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and online at www.deborahlippmann.com

Michelle Monaghan's Red Carpet Pat On The Black

One of my favorite actresses and star of the Source Code, Michelle Monaghan, hit the red carpet at the Met Ball last night wearing Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Pat On The Black, best described as a black grape - the more coats, the darker it looks. I love the contrast of her hot Barbie-pink gown with the dark, moodiness of her nails.

Michelle’s stylist and Sally Hansen’s Style Advisor, Mary Alice Stephenson, chose the chic shade, revealing, "I love how the dark polish gives a very McQueen edge to all that gorgeous Derek Lam pink that Michelle is wearing. The right nail polish is just as important as picking the perfect clutch, shoes or jewelry. Nail color instantly changes a look and is a fast and easy way to make any outfit look more special whether you want to add drama or be a bit more demure!"

Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure is an all-in-one formula that combines the 5 steps of a professional salon manicure in a single multi-tasking polish, it retails for $7.99 and available at drugstores nationwide.
